Eighth-grader Laura Anderson closed out the night with two hits, including a double. Senior Tacie Blunk gave the Toreadors a run-scoring single and freshman Stefanie Davis contributed an RBI sacrifice fly.

Hunter (4-0) earned the win in the pitcher’s circle. She allowed four runs on seven hits in four innings, struck out one batter and issued one walk.

Junior Sam McIlwain pitched the fifth inning. She finished with one strikeout and one walk while yielding one run on two hits.

Boone was handed a 3-0 loss at Norwalk (6-1) on Monday. Vinchattle’s fifth-inning double was the only hit the Toreadors managed against Warrior freshman pitcher Taylor Goode.

“She really did a nice job of keeping the ball down and throwing it away from us,” McDonald said. “We just didn’t adjust very well.”

McIlwain (1-5) took the loss. She gave up three runs on six hits, fanned three and walked four in seven innings.

The Toreadors will face junior pitcher Paige Lowary in tonight’s matchup. Lowary is currently third in Class 4A with 77 strikeouts and is sporting a 1.10 earned run average this season.

The Toreadors look to work ahead in the count, while putting balls in play against Lowary and the Fillies.

“We just need to make good contact, force their defense to throw us out and swing at only good pitches,” McDonald said. “Lowary’s got a really good riseball that gets you chasing and if you do that, it’s going to be a long night.”
